Little here has changed least of all the crows divebombing  
the speeding cars on the Ave don't they know it's Holy Week 

Then let the sharp Oceanview March wind tread our ears

I to you turn with tiny dumbo weather-tears starting

later the weird thought memory  you in submarine tango bar   

Old Edgethrow roaming the questionable waterfront
who to wedlock this wonder wedlock brought not enough
enough to stand up to the numerousness of years expecting 

each be other’s comfort kind but then life happens

always the same almost forever feeling sometimes merciful

sometimes binding close sometimes falling apart

My tribute what I experienced in one week in Idomeni: image via Andrej Isakovic @iandrej. 24 March 2016

When you lookup on Wikipedia you get the following description: Idomeni is a small village in Greece, near the borders with the Republic of Macedonia. The village is located in the municipality of Paeonia, Kilkis regional unit of Central Macedonia. But in the history books it will be remembered by human suffering.  For the past three years, and especially since September 2014, this global drama called migration has unfolded in Idomeni, on the border between Greece and Macedonia. The victims are refugees from Syria, Iran, Afghanistan, Morocco, Somalia… Their odyssey was halted in this forgotten place in Europe. I’ve spent only one week photographing all those people at a makeshift camp, but I will remember this for my whole life. -- Andrej Isakovic
